"TLC has decided that the current season of L.A. Ink will be its last. The network is proud of what the series has accomplished in its four seasons, following Kat Von D's journey as an artist from Miami to Los Angeles."

And here's what Kat Von D herself is now saying about it:

"In an effort to capitalize on my recent breakup, the network has decided to focus their energy on re-editing events that didn't happen while filming. I have no regrets and am very proud of the original footage. In my opinion, any attempt to compromise the honesty of that would be an insult to my fans and viewers."

"As grateful as I am to have been a part of a show like LA Ink, I'm ready to end this chapter and want to focus on other projects now."

Kat def sounds pissed about this, but then again can you blame her? Things are NOT going wonderfully for her lately AT ALL!

TLC has to spice things up and make interesting by cutting here and there. That's the REAL REALITY of reality tv. More drama= more viewers and they could care less what Kat thinks anyway. Once filming has been wrapped they can pretty much do whatever they please. Maybe the only way Kat felt she had control was to just end it all and scrap it. She better be smart with her projects cause not having that TLC check is going to suck. Let's be real here this is more about James and all the bad publicity she's been getting. So long Kat!

TLC is one of the WORST of the networks that "re-edit" raw footage to suit
whatever needs they feel will generate more viewers, Kat has just cause to
be upset
•
you ever heard the audio on "LA Ink",
there are moments when you can clearly hear the dialog edits from past shows
re-edited to make whatever "drama" more "dramatic". pffft.
•
i think "LA Ink", along with Kat have made their mark (pun intended)
•
she will be fine….
•
TLC, not-so-much
•

This is after she demanded they completely change a season to edit out footage of her ex, right?? And then edit out anything bad she said about Nikki after they got back together? I think they got tired of her.

I think it's ironic she released the fact her and Jesse James are back together the same day they announced her show is being cancelled. She is capitalizing on her own relationship to gain more press. She asked for everything she got the minute she signed on to do reality TV.

GREAT!!!! fantastic news! look at the mess this woman has made of her body! hopefully now that she is off air she wont be influencing others to make the same shitty mistakes she has. TATTOOS ARE FOR LIFE KIDS, you cant rub them out when you get sick of them or realise the MISTAKE you have made.

why do people hate her? shes might be a little weird but thats it. shes a great tattooer! she made a great show and TLC ruined it by editing it into pure crap. I wish her the best and hope jesse doesn't fuck her over like he did to Sandra…
